Here's how this works ⬇️

⇨ Get scheduled on niche-specific podcasts every month.
⇨ Transform those conversations into targeted video content.
⇨ And attract new buyers on: LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.

✋🏻✋🏻✋🏻

Not just buyers either…
You’ll also attract:

🔸Fans
🔸Referrals
🔸Partnerships
🔸Recruits + Top Talent
🔸Public Speaking Gigs

(I’ll explain everything in our first meeting)

Second... why should you work with me?

I'm a content partner in your pocket. 

⇨ I leverage AI to help me with clerical work, ideation, note-taking, image generation, video editing, research, copywriting... and so on. Because of that, I don't need a bloated team, I am the team. That means fewer headaches for you nursing a bunch of freelancers and a consistent/fair price.
⇨ I'm not an order taker. I'm a partner in your pocket. I have a plan for everything. That not only saves you time by avoiding other people's sales funnels but additionally, gives you the answers faster so you can stay in front of your competition consistently for longer.
⇨ I'm incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and creative. I'm also a lot of fun to work with. 

More specifically... I'll help you build a content ecosystem, one that's systems-based, that's built around your busy schedule, and can be leveraged to grow your brand and your business for years to come.

Daniel Kading Ghostwriting & Social Media Management

Freelance Ghostwriter/SM Manager

Eventi Media Inc.

I was the Head of Strategy for Eventi Media. 

This start-up out of Canada with a team from all over the world mostly focused on short-form video content for entrepreneurs, professionals, and experts in their field. 

We took 4 hours of your time and turned it into a full month of content each month on TikTok, Instagram, and, YouTube Shorts. 

I was brought onto the team to not only take over creative but also help implement LinkedIn/X (Twitter) at the time... into the company's product offering. 

In this role, I mostly focused on: 

- Scriptwriting
- Copywriting
- Ghostwriting
- Client Success
- Creative
- Analysis

And overall helping each client create the best message possible

On as many platforms as possible.

Head of Strategy

Deep Social Brands Inc.

I worked as the lead of client success. 

More specifically here's what I did for the team at DSB: 

- Worked with clients on strategy
- Strategized/created the copy for the client's content
- Worked with the editing team to ensure that vision came to life
- Assisted the production team with scheduling, filming coordination, and client deliverables
- Additionally, worked as the intermediary between clients, founders, and outside vendors 
- Additionally I helped out with management of day-to-day operations for a book of 25 + clients

Client Success Manager

I worked as the Junior Content Strategist for Deep Social Brands.

Here’s what I did in this role:

- I helped write weekly TikTok content for a book of 15-20 clients
- I also assisted with creative and copywriting
- Strategy
- Client coaching
- Personal branding
- Content creation 

I transitioned out of this role and into the Client Success Manager role after only 3 months with the company.

Content Strategist 

Bird

Fleet Manager

Grubhub

Driver

Lyft

Uber

Hooked, Inc.

I utilized my interpersonal skills, sales know-how, and best marketing practices to help businesses find new customers, through in-app geo-targeted advertising.

I accomplished this by bringing together a community of food-related businesses to help people save money on everyday purchases and created organic engagement/acquisition of new customers for clients that encouraged new/repeat traffic consistently.

More specifically I oversaw:

- Outreach (growing in-app food/drink offerings)
- Growth (bringing on new users to engage w/ restaurants) 
- Guerrilla Marketing
- Field Marketing
- Content Creation/Management 
- Copywriting 
- Acted as intermediary between clients and Customer Success Manager

I grew the app by downloads from 10.5k to 19k in a year and launched the subscription model growing it to roughly 3k in size in only a few months through events and word-of-mouth.

Additionally, I grew the content offering on the platform from 56 restaurants/bars to 78, this required some serious self-starter chops because I had no one else helping me along the way. 

I did all of the prospecting on my own, built their content after the sale, and did events with them later on. 

I grew so much through this role, not only as a salesperson but as a content creator and marketer.

Sales/Marketing Manager

High-caliber social media manager for serious brands 📡 I write like Deadpool kills... I may be super but I'm no hero ⚔️

Here's my backstory...

My name's Dan. 

I go over and above for my community and I'm very driven to help others see success on this platform. 

That's why if you DM me with a random question… I'll more than likely help you. 

Send me a cringe sales DM and I’ll delete it.
Drop too many AI-generated comments on my content…

I’ll block you... ✋🏻

I grew up at the skatepark and helping others is how you learn, especially when doing something difficult like skateboarding. 🛹

Creating content is incredibly similar and that's why I operate like this. It just feels right. 

On top of that I come from a performance poetry (slamming)🎙️background so being vulnerable in the public square is quite literally a walk in the park for me. 

I'm also a public speaker. 

I've done talks at prestigious events like the Social Media Marketing World in San Diego in '23 where I spoke in front of a 2000 + person audience.

And the Linked Innovators Summit with household names like Richard Van Der Blom that same year.

I've also been on nearly 30 podcasts.

If you need a good guest for your next episode...

Or a speaker for your next event please feel free to DM me, I'm always down. 

Come for the insights… stay for the vibes.✌️

LinkedIn Strategy for Coaches, Consultants, & Entrepreneurs | Elevate Your Personal Brand to Attract Inbound Opportunities | 1-1 Coaching | Group Training | Book a Call 👇🏼

Most Gen X executives I work with get overlooked for promotions, speaking opportunities, and consulting clients — not because they lack expertise, but because their LinkedIn doesn't position them as the authority they are.
Their profiles read like resumes. Their message feels unclear. And opportunities pass them by.
Highly capable Gen X leaders were becoming invisible in a digital-first world — not because they weren't good at what they do, but because they were never taught how to communicate their value online.
So I built a different approach.
For 8+ years, I've helped executives transform their LinkedIn from a digital resume into a client-attraction tool — without posting 3x/day, chasing trends, or sounding like a motivational speaker.

What I focus on:
→ Positioning & Messaging – Articulating your expertise so the right opportunities come to you.
→ Visibility & Confidence – Showing up consistently without feeling awkward or "salesy."
→ LinkedIn Strategy for Organizations – Building unified presence that attracts talent and clients.

What clients experience:
→ A consultant grew to 9,000 authentic connections and said "my business has grown tremendously"
→ An entrepreneur went from "spending so much time with no results" to finding new clients
→ A coach said she "would have given up without Gracie's coaching"
Not because I taught them to post more — because their LinkedIn finally communicated the authority they'd spent years building.

I partner with Gen X leaders — corporate executives positioning for board roles and consulting work, and entrepreneurs attracting premium clients — who want LinkedIn to work for them.

Most LinkedIn profiles don’t fail because they’re incomplete.

They fail because they were built without a decision.

Not a design decision.
 A positioning decision.

Here’s the quiet truth I’ve seen working with professionals and founders:

If your profile isn’t built for your buyer, it becomes invisible —
 even if it looks polished.

People don’t reach out because of one element.
 They reach out after repeated exposure + clarity.

That’s why this matters:

• Your photo isn’t about looking professional — it’s about signaling trust
 • Your headline isn’t a job title — it’s a reason to keep reading
 • Your banner, featured section, and About section aren’t decorative — they’re decision support
 • Your recommendations aren’t social proof — they’re permission

And here’s the part most people miss:

You don’t earn trust by optimizing once.
 You earn it by deciding who your profile is for — and reinforcing it consistently.

LinkedIn isn’t a resume.
 It’s a landing page for conversations.

If someone lands on your profile today, the real question is:

👉 Would they immediately know who you help — and why reaching out makes sense now?

If you’re not sure, that’s not a posting problem.

That’s a clarity decision waiting to be made.

I help Gen X professionals turn LinkedIn into a clear business tool — attracting the right people, real conversations, and clients.

Growing on LinkedIn isn’t about knowing more tactics.

Most people already know what to do.

The real shift happens when you make this decision:

Are you using LinkedIn to broadcast
 —or to build relationships that compound?

Here’s the direction that changes everything:

• Visibility comes from showing up around other people’s content, not just           posting your own
 • The algorithm rewards interaction, not isolation
 • Networking works when it feels human, not transactional

That decision shows up daily:

Do you scroll past — or stop and engage?
 Do you “like” — or leave a thoughtful comment?
 Do you chase reach — or build recognition?

When you choose consistency and intention over hacks, something changes.

People recognize your name.

 Conversations start without forcing them.

 Opportunities grow quietly in the background.

LinkedIn growth isn’t about being the loudest voice.

It’s about being the most present one.

If this made you pause, you’re probably deciding how you want to grow here next.

Your LinkedIn headline isn't just a job title. It's a search tool.

If it only says "Managing Partner" or "Advisor," you're invisible in search.

You need to show who you help.
What you solve.

That's how the right people find you.

No fluff. No jargon.

Just clear, specific signals.

Want to be found faster?
Start there.

👇 Free LinkedIn Audit Checklist in comments.

You can be active on LinkedIn and still feel completely unsure you’re doing it right.

You post.
 You connect.
 You engage.

And something still feels off.

Because no one ever explained that one section quietly decides what people understand about you — before they ever message you.

It’s not decoration.
It’s a decision point.

The moment someone asks themselves:
“Do I trust this person?”
“Do they understand my world?”
“Is it worth starting a conversation?”

Your Featured section is answering those questions — whether you intend it to or not.

When it’s unclear, people hesitate.
 When it’s intentional, things get easier.

• People stay longer
 • Trust forms faster
 • Conversations feel more natural
 • Opportunities don’t need chasing

A client once told me:

 “I didn’t even know that section mattered. I was just… lost.”

That clarity alone changed how he showed up — and what followed.

If this made you pause, it’s usually not a profile issue.

It’s a visibility decision surfacing.

What do you want someone to understand about you before they ever send a message?

Most people who feel invisible on LinkedIn are already showing up.

They’re just operating without a clear direction.

They post.
 They comment.
 They send messages.

But they haven’t decided what role LinkedIn actually plays in their business.

For years, LinkedIn has been treated as:

A digital résumé
Or a constant pitching platform
Neither builds trust.

The real shift happens when you make one decision:

👉 Am I here to collect attention — or build relationships that compound?

That decision changes everything.

Because when your direction is clear:

* Your profile stops being informational and starts being intentional
* Your content stops explaining and starts signaling experience
* Your engagement stops feeling random and starts building familiarity

People don’t buy because you showed up once.

They buy because they’ve seen you consistently, clearly, and humanly.

Visibility without intention feels noisy.
 Connection without trust goes nowhere.

If LinkedIn feels quiet right now, it’s rarely the algorithm.

It’s usually a decision that hasn’t been made yet.

And once it is, conversations tend to follow.

Your LinkedIn DMs aren’t broken.

They’re reflecting a decision you may not have fully made yet.

Most people treat DMs like a sales channel.
 Something to optimize.
 Scale.
 Automate.

But the real decision isn’t how to message people.

It’s whether you want transactions —
 or relationships that compound.

When you choose volume, DMs feel awkward.
 When you choose intention, conversations start to flow.

That decision shows up in small moments:
 • Do you copy and paste — or pause and personalize?
 • Do you pitch — or ask a thoughtful question?
 • Do you lead with urgency — or genuine curiosity?

When that decision becomes clear, something shifts.

DMs stop feeling forced.
 Conversations feel natural.
 Trust builds quietly.
 Opportunities follow.

People don’t resist messages.
 They resist being treated like a number.

If this made you pause, it’s usually because you’re deciding what kind of growth you actually want to build.

And that decision changes everything.

Your LinkedIn SSI score impacts your visibility more than you think.

Boost it with these quick hacks.

Spend 10 minutes daily engaging.
Comment on five posts with real insights.
LinkedIn rewards genuine conversations.

Post 2-3 times this week.
Consistency beats quantity.
Always.

Send connection requests strategically.
Stay under 80 if you don't have Sales Navigator.
That's about 10 requests a day.

A higher SSI score means more views and opportunities.
Start now. Watch your profile grow.

LinkedIn isn’t broken.

 And it’s not a content problem either.

It’s more like gardening.

Not because growth takes time —
 but because you have to decide what kind of garden you’re actually growing.

Most people plant seeds everywhere.
Post everywhere.
Engage with everyone.

Then wonder why nothing meaningful grows.

The real shift happens when you decide:

 • Who this garden is for
 • What you’re intentionally nurturing
 • And what you’re willing to stop tending

Consistency matters — but only after direction is clear.
 Otherwise, you’re just watering everything and hoping something works.

LinkedIn starts working when you stop chasing growth
 and start building a healthy, intentional ecosystem:

 • the right people
 • the right conversations
 • the right relationships

That’s when progress feels slower — but far more sustainable.

If your LinkedIn presence feels busy but not productive, it’s usually not about effort.

It’s about deciding what you’re actually trying to grow.

Lately I’ve been thinking about how much pressure we put on ourselves to be “ready” before we’re visible.

Most growth starts before confidence shows up.

That’s something I’m sitting with this weekend.

Most leaders I talk to aren’t short on expertise.

They’re deciding how visible they want to be as leaders in this next season.

Visibility used to feel optional.
 A nice-to-have.
 Something delegated or postponed.

Now it’s a leadership decision.

Not because of algorithms or trends —
but because trust is built by the people who are willing to be seen, heard, and understood.

The real tension isn’t LinkedIn.

 It’s deciding whether staying behind the scenes still serves the role you’re in — or the one you’re stepping into.

Avoiding that decision doesn’t keep things stable.
 It quietly limits influence, alignment, and opportunity.

And clarity doesn’t come from posting more. It comes from deciding how you want to show up — and why.

If this made you pause, that’s usually the moment a leadership decision is surfacing — not a content problem.

At this stage of life, I’m not interested in chasing more.

More goals.
More content.
More pressure.

What I want is alignment.

So I didn’t choose a word for the year.
I chose a standard.

Alignment means my goals match the season I’m in — not the one I used to be in.
It means my calendar reflects what actually matters, not what looks impressive.

This year, effort goes toward leverage — not noise.
Progress over performance.

Not more output.
 Better decisions.

That’s alignment for me.

If you’ve been feeling the tension between where you are and what you’re still carrying, that’s usually a sign something needs to be decided — not pushed harder.

undefined undefined

Most people underestimate this part ⬇️

Posting is only half of LinkedIn visibility.
Commenting is how relationships are built, trust is earned, and opportunities actually start.

If you want LinkedIn to work for you (not feel like another task on your to-do list), consistency in engagement matters more than chasing reach.

Curious — what’s harder for you right now on LinkedIn:
👉 knowing what to comment
👉 or staying consistent with it?
